Did all the fab work for the new parking brake bracket. The new one has a lower profile, and has the control arm on the right, getting it out of the way of the rudder pedals. This new one is going to work. I also decided to make it in several parts to avoid complicated bends. Rivets will stitch it together.

Got a care package from AC Spruce. A homebuilders AN bolt assortment, various Adel clamps, nutplates, screws, MK-319-BS pop rivets, and a transponder antenna.
